research for our songs.

song 1;

the song we are doing.
the original song.
gangsters paradise (kina Grannis cover)

this cover stood out to me because she is only using a guitar and her vocals. the original song is sung by a dude and the rapper is a dude too so this shows her perseverance doing a male role in the song.

Gangsta’s Paradise – Coolio | Robert vs. Marco Cover | The Voice of Germany 2016 | Battles

This is a good cover because it is a male duo and its live as well seen as though its a talent show. These guys are German and still sounds like they know the song inside out.

Coolio – Gangsta’s Paradise | MB14 (Beatbox Loopstation) | The Voice France 2016 | Blind Audition

I really liked this performance because it was a beat boxer so the way he structured the song at the start in the build up was cool and I think from just watching this i understand the structure of the song better.

Overall i learned this song by just practicing what nick showed us and that ended up being the part i would play.

song 2:

I’ll be missing you – Puff Daddy feat. Faith Evans & 112

This is our second song.

a bit of context behind the song “I’ll be missing you”

The video above was brought to me by my classmate and band leader Kaitlyn, she told me it would be an addition to my research.

Every Breath You Take – Police

This is the original track that our song sampled.

The way i learned this song was when Nick showed me how to play it i just practiced a lot and got hand of it and i became better and better at playing it.

song 3:

Zombie – The Cranberries

This is the third song we are doing in our set list.

Bad Wolves – zombie

This was a cover made as a tribute to the unfortunate passing of the lead singer of the Cranberries. All the proceeds of this song were given to her children.

How to Play “Zombie” by The Cranberries on Guitar (Easy Acoustic) – Marty Schwartz

This is how i learned this song.
